Don't imagine that just because a person Is at sea when Christmas ar rives he gets no Yuletlde cheer. Christ mas on one of the big ocean liners is observed religiously, which is to say thnt the day Is fully appreciated by both o!Bcers and passengers. "The mau who spends his life on board n big passenger ship sees about as many different kiDds of Chrlstmuses ns anvbndy. 1 guess," said the cnp'in of one of tb" great transatlantic steam ships as he sat in his cabin the other day preparing for a holiday voyage to the Mediterranean. "Some Christmas days 1 have spent ou the north At lantic, oliiers while in the China trade and still others in the south Pacific and the Mediterranean. "The fact is that I have spent only one Christmas day nt home since I was married and I haven't been a bachelor for a good many years. Now we sail from New York very soon and will touch at Gibraltar, Genoa and oth er ports, and before we reach here again Christmas will have been passed. "When your ship is running on a voy age to the Mediterranean, with a crowd of Jolly passengers aboard who are off on a trip to enjoy themselves. Christmas Is a day to be remembered. Friends and relatives send gifts on ahead, so that they may be handed to passengers at the right time, and of course this personal remembrance from home makes more enjoyable the celebration which is always prepared on board the ship Itself. "The 24th of December passes about as do other days until dinner time ar rives, and then the chefs and stewards outdo themselves In providing an elaborate menu and in table decora tions. If the weather is fine, and it Is likely to be. the passengers are in high spirits, for the Christmas feeling Is Infectious, no matter where you go. "Toward the end of the dinner speeches are made, songs are rendered, stories are told and toasts are given, and when this is completed all go to -the malo saloon, and the Christmas tree is revealed, standing there in the middle under the big skylight. It is a big tree, too Just as big as can be ob tained and put In place and on it are bung gifts from the ship for every pas senger, not costly at all. but remem- b ranees that are likely to be long pre served as souvenirs of a pleasant oc casion. "Then, if the sea is not blgb, the candles are lighted, and the tree bursts Into beautiful illumination. "After a distribution ot gifts from the tree a concert is given If the weather is bad. But whenever Christ mas eve is pleasant and the latitude Is suitable the passengers go on deck, which they find to be shielded from the wind by canvas, brlllinntly lighted and decorated with Sags and bunting. And. I tell you. ou a moonlight night, with a calm sea and soft, pleasant air. In the Mediterranean, for example, a Christmas eve ball aboard a great ship is something for most passengers to remember. "I'm sure I can't imagine anything more charming for those who enjoy dancing. The romance, the poetry of it all, must be delightful to the pas sengers." Boston Globe. CHRISTMAS CARD'S FATHER. British Artist Originated This Form of Greeting In 1844. Some day surely a grateful monu ment will be erected to the memory of W. A. Dobson, the parent of the Christ mas card, for be -us a true herald of peace and good will to the world and no small benefactor to commerce, saya a writer in Tit-Bits. In 1844 Mr. Dobson, who later be came a famous member of the Royal academy, was a young man earning a modest income as master of the gov ernment School of Design at Birming ham. One evening in December in stead of writing his usual letter of Christmas good wishes to a friend it occurred to him to substitute a pic torial greeting, and, taking a piece of card about twice as large as a modern postcard, be began to draw on it. In the center of the three panels into Which he divided bis design be sketch ed u family group raising glasses to the health of distant friends amid a seasonable environment of holly and mistletoe, while on each side of this festal scene he drew a picture of a deed of charity. This card Mr. Dobson dispatched to bis friend, giving it no further thought The friend, however, was delighted with his novel and atlstic Christmas greeting and showed It everywhere proudly, to the equal admiration of bis acquaintances. Everybody begged for a similar card, and in the following December the amiable Mr. Dobson etched another design and this time had it lithographed and sent out cop ies by the score. In the following year be had several imitators, and the Christmas card was at last launched ou tbe ride of popular favor, although even then if Mr. Dobson had been told that bis modest card of 1844 would nave 40.000.000 descendants sixty-five years later in Great Britain alone be would probably have thrown up bis bands In amazement and Incredulity.
